Beginning on September 1, 2011, we will announce one Social Media Fan of the Day everyday on Twitter via @canadiensMTL, the official Twitter account of the Montreal Canadiens. The winner will receive a $10 gift certificate to any Habs Zone location and we’ll post his or her profile on canadiens.com. Oh, and don’t forget to tell your friends – it’s in your best interests!

How do you show your passion for the Canadiens through social media?

I watch as many games as I can on TV. I have been to one Montreal game vs. the Flames – they lost 6-2 but I’ll still never forget that day. I also have tickets for the March 6th game vs. Flames. I also read CANADIENS Magazine. The reason I’m such a huge Habs fan is that my 15th cousin might be Maurice Richard. I painted my room red, blue and white to show my pride for the team. I also watch every video on HabsTV.
